I hear that NCAA is looking at going to a super regional format for D3 next year. Anyone else heard this.

The talk is for 2014.

New head coach hired at McDaniel. Mike Hoyt, former associate head coach and defensive coordinator at Albright.

Watch all 13 of McDaniel's 3-pointers from Tuesday night's win over Ursinus, complete with the call from Tim Murray and Dave Trumbo.

Just as an FYI - it appears that schedule is outdated. As far as I know (and the conference website supports this). The only game Tuesday night is Lebanon Valley at McDaniel.

Scheduling conflicts prevented the conference office from conducting the normal Tuesday morning press conference.

To clarify all of the confusion over the "conditioning week":

- The NCAA rule for Division III was always practice could start on Oct. 15 (same date as D1 and D2) but the first week was termed "conditioning week", meaning no basketball-related activities could take place.
- The NCAA changed this rule a few years back (they all run together for me, maybe '04, '05, '06) allowing all three divisions to start full basketball practices on Oct. 15 - realizing how dumb the rule was. Those making the decisions on the national level determined (after listening to the coaches) that the players are in the gym for two hours any way, might as well just let them have the ball.
- It was just after the huge push for reform (that the CC was a large part of), so the CC Presidents determined that the conference would still continue by the old rules thus not allowing "basketball-related activities" during the first week.

To clarify someone's post, the intent of the rule was not just to not have a ball. Coaches cannot teach or any other "basketball-related activities" during that week. It is intended strictly for conditioning.

The coaches have continued to push for a "level playing field" with the rest of the country but to no avail. The presidents did concede on the other end and allow for a competition sdate in line with the rest of the country (Nov. 15) but have continued to hold firm on the week of conditioning.

Thus, the first day of "real" practice is actually Thursday for the CC. Hope that helps the confusion.
